The "Mukaakas" (Grandmothers)

The Grandmothers are the true heroes of the AIDS pandemic in Africa. They take care of their orphaned grandchildren despite old age and incredible poverty. Our project provides support to these heroic ladies and are the key component of our community program as they care for the orphans.

Provide Education to AIDS Orphans in Rural Uganda

Uganda Children

The Nyaka AIDS Orphans Project (NAOP) is working to free orphans from the cycle of poverty by providing a high-quality, free education, both formal and informal, to children who have been orphaned due to HIV/AIDS in order to counteract pervasive hunger, poverty, and systemic deprivation. Your donation will help provide a student with a uniform, meals, medicine, and supplies for one school year. For your secondary students, your donation will also include transportation to their school.
